Your trust is our top concern.
We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.
We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.
Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.
All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.
I have worked with Dr Saks for twenty years and found her to be caring, knowledgeable and always investigating new medicines. Her practice and staff is very efficient.

I saw Dr. Bonnie Saks several years ago for a period of two years. I then returned to her several years later with a different issue. She was excellent on both occasions. I traveled from a neighboring city to see her as I am a professional in a closely related field and was uncomfortable seeing a psychiatrist in my community. I have nothing but praise for her ability.

I have been seeing Dr. Saks for almost one year now and she has been instrumental in helping me control my anxiety and depression. Dr. Saks has the unique ability to explain what medications are best for my situation, how they work, both technically and in a way that is easy to understand. Each visit she carefully evaluates the effectiveness of each medicine and adjusts/changes as necessary.
Dr. Saks and staff are professional and create a pleasant experience. I highly recommend her services.

I have been a pt. in Dr. Saks office for over 20 years. I really like Dr. Saks as my healthcare provider. She is extremely professional and always explains my treatment plan to me. Dr. Saks is very empathetic and very caring. She is very easy to talk to and is always ready to help me with my concerns. She and her office staff are very friendly. I would recommend her as a perfect healthcare provider. I have never had to wait more thank 5-10 minutes to be taken back to be seen.

Being a health care provider myself, I can honestly say that Dr Saks is tops in her field. I have worked along side multiple doctors and know the great ones from the not-so great ones. Dr Saks is truly one of the very best in her profession. Kind, compassionate, and extremely knowledgeable about the newest and best medications out there today. I've researched much about depression, anxiety, PTSD, bipolar disorders and know that I have the best doctor to guide me through the maze of mental healt

Dr. Saks is a remarkable Doctor. She is thorough, empathetic and operates with the highest degree of integrity. She has improved the quality of my life a thousand times over. She is efficient and mindful of the costs of treatment for her patients. If you have tried everything else but have come up short, I would highly recommend you schedule an appointment with her.

Misdiagnosed. Over medicated. Withdrew my prescription causing me to detox from a powerful narcotic without a doctor's supervision. This doctor is not well versed in addiction. Thank God a therapist in her office recommended a 12 step program. I fired Dr Saks and joined Narcotics Anonymous and have been drug free and my depression and severe anxiety are gone. In February I will celebrate 4 years of sobriety. I am enjoying life for the first time without medication and therapy!
